Motorad 219-180 Engine Coolant Thermostat

The Motorad 219-180 is a standard engine coolant thermostat set to begin opening at 180°F for controlled coolant flow and stable operating temperature. It is a direct-fit option for 1975-1982 Chevrolet LUV applications that call for an 180F OEM engine coolant thermostat.

Key Features

  • 180°F start-to-open temperature for temperature regulation in the cooling system
  • OEM-specification manufacturing process and materials from an OE supplier
  • Copper case and wax compound for quick response to coolant temperature changes
  • Offset design with air relief valve where applicable
  • OEM-style seals included where applicable
  • Standard thermostat design for routine cooling system service

Product Details

Built under Motorad Standard line specifications, part number 219-180 is engineered for consistent thermostat operation in demanding cooling systems. The copper case and wax element are used to react promptly as coolant temperature rises, helping the thermostat open at the specified 180°F point. For Chevrolet LUV owners searching for a 1975-1982 Chevrolet LUV engine coolant thermostat, this unit matches the listed OEM-style application and supports proper coolant circulation once operating temperature is reached. This part cross-references Bosch 13718 and CSF 3718 for the same application.
